Paul Smith commented on MNG-2906: --------------------------------- If I manually 'mvn install:install-file' commons-collections 2.1 into my local repository (which is the minimum in the specified range), it then works, but only because I already have the _other_ version ranged dependencies (such as commons-digester) already installed. I have verified this on multiple computers in the same office. If one computer does not have the specified minimum version as part of a dependency, even if they have later versions, this project fails. This is extremely painful. > version ranges don't work after a day has passed > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MNG-2906 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2906 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Artifacts and Repositories > Reporter: Bill Dudney > Fix For: 2.1.x > > Attachments: example.tar.gz, example.X.output.txt > > > dependency A has a range dependency on B > my project has a dependency on A (not directly on B) > I build my project with a fresh clean repo (i.e. rm -rf ~/.m2/repository) > B's latest is downloaded as expected > the next morning I rebuild my project and I get error messages that no > suitable version can be found; > No versions are present in the repository for the artifact with a range > [1.02b,) com.lowagie:itext-null.jar > the particulars are jfreereports depending on [1.02b,) of lowagie. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
